davis webb

Payasdaddy : 7/10/2019 6:46 pm
sound familiar?
He looked good in gmen offseason too
Gotta admit I did think he would make team last yr

Via Hughes, former Giants third-rounder Davis Webb had an impressive offseason program, so impressive that he apparently jumped Siemian late in the OTA process. Hughes writes that Webb was the second quarterback to take the field during the final set of OTAs.

Hughes adds that the Jets would like to keep only two quarterbacks on the final 53-man roster. Siemian, however, has $1 million of his one-year, $2 million contract fully guaranteed. (He already has earned a $750,000 signing bonus.) So cutting Siemian and keeping Webb (who has a non-guaranteed salary of $645,000) would create enhanced expense and wasted money.

It also would create the risk that, if the Jets need Siemian later, he wont be available. Whether hes signed by another NFL team or by the fledgling XFL which plans to gobble up third- and fourth-string quarterbacks who are cut from NFL rosters Siemian could be long gone if/when an injury creates a reason to bring him back.

Ditto for Webb, who also could land with another team, or with the XFL.

Another option, as Hughes notes, would be to trade Webb, who was regarded as having a bright future before he washed out with the Giants. Maybe that future is getting brighter, whether its with the Jets, another NFL team, or ultimately as one of the eight starters for Vince McMahons resurrected spring league.

See heres the thing Josh. Youre incessant whining and crying over the Barkley pick than the Daniel Jones pick takes up so much of this hoard when it happened, no one bothered reading another thing of yours. You cried about it before, during, and after the draft.

And your constant bitching of Barkley over Darnold I find HIGHLY amusing since you HATED Darnold before the draft and wanted us to draft Josh Allen. Now Im sure youre going to deny you never wanted Darnold, but everyone on this thread knows its not true. Then you were all over trading for Rosen when again - you didnt even want him before the draft last year.

If theres one thing thats constant about draft time. Youre not big and complaining.


And this is related to Webb comments? How do you remember so much about this and every other poster you argue with which is no short list...seems creepy.

Sounds like you're now deflecting and trying to change the subject after making yet another inaccurate statement about my posting. Still waiting for you to show me all the draft picks I've complained about aside from the first two picks in the past two drafts. You can't bc as usual you're talking out of your ass. Pathetic.

Lol. 5 other posters said the same thing. Cant wait for you to claim to want six different QBs instead of the one we chose. Lets check the list...

Darnold

Rosen

What was your question? Unlike you, I have no problem acknowledging and responding to statements I've made in the past. And even the statement you're referring to right above, I stand by that today. While I hope like hell I'm wrong, I believe it was an unbelievably terrible pick.

I also stated when we drafted Barkley, I thought he would be amazing, but I also thought it was the absolute wrong pick b/c of position value and how good I expected some of those QB's to be. I stand by that statement as well. You can make fun of those statements all you want and I can still think you're like most typically shortsighted fans.

discussion alone should cement exactly what kind of acumen you have.

Not only did you keep reiterating he was a terrible pick, you did it throughout the season when the guy should have obviously shut you up.

But looking smart probably isn't high on the priority list for you.

Then to call for Gettleman to be fired on draft night and much of the time since then? Yeah - you are pretty much a fucking moron.

Dont forget he wanted to draft...

Sam Darnold
Josh Rosen
And Josh Allen

He got all his bases cover in case one actually has a productive career. Such acumen!!

Actually, I didn't want to draft all of them. I thought when we were drafting at #2 overall in what was considered one of the best QB classes in recent memory with a then 37 yr old QB at the end of his career that we should be drafting our future QB over any RB. But as usual, you will attempt to rewrite history to try and draw an inaccurate conclusion either due to your inability to understand basic team-building concepts or a conscious effort to manipulate the facts. This has predictably become your modus operandi and it's quite petty and pathetic.

You mean 2018?

A bit early to reach that conclusion, no?
Yes, 2018  
JonC : 7/15/2019 5:42 pm : link
and I'm referring to how they were actually viewed and drafted on draft day, relative to how they were viewed before scouting season had completed (and where fans like Josh have nailed down their hat).

Fans need to understand that simply drafting the best player at any position just because you have a need for them, doesn't meant they were a smart (or the right or best) pick. You've got to believe in the player.

Off the top of my head, I don't know  
JonC : 7/15/2019 5:53 pm : link
but the QBs were largely not viewed as strongly on draft day, many front office personnel spoke about it, it also made its way to the media. Much was already said about teams heavily drafting for need and taking bigger risks on finding a QB. Time will confirm or disprove which position is more accurate.

JonC : 7/16/2019 2:06 pm : link
in the QB evaluation abilities of the Browns, Jets, Bills, or Cards.

The talk leading up to the draft was many talent evaluators did not hold the QB group in as high of regard at the draft as they did earlier in the scouting season, before complete evaluations were completed. Take it for what you will. The Giants were one of those teams, I shared that here at that time.
JonC....it seems like a lot of these teams drafted the QBs  
Zeke's Alibi : 7/16/2019 2:14 pm : link
based on where they had them before their last season. Drafting on hope of what they can become and not where the evaluations were at. Specifically Rosen and Darnold. I think Baker is the real deal and showed as much on the field and off in college.
And the evaluation for Baker is coming from Dorsey  
Zeke's Alibi : 7/16/2019 2:16 pm : link
The guy who drafted Rodgers and Mahomes.
one out of four ain't bad  
JonC : 7/16/2019 2:22 pm : link
Really, the argument is Darnold or Barkley. At the draft I preferred Darnold, but if NYG didn't believe in him to lead them to championships, then that's it. The rest, time will tell.
I was hoping it was going to be Baker, but as soon as it became clear  
Zeke's Alibi : 7/16/2019 2:26 pm : link
he was going one I was all aboard the Barkley train. You don't just get a chance to draft a sure thing like him too often. Plenty of QBs like Darnold coming out the college pipeline these days.
and that's precisely the point  
JonC : 7/16/2019 2:48 pm : link
You don't draft one for the sake of it, the value and belief have got to be there.

I'm a firm believer it is about fit as it is about anything else. John Dorsey just made Freddie Kitchens a head coach because of his relationship with Baker. Time will tell if this was a good decision or not, but I understand the thought process.
